is this the same as rapid rise yeast for bread making machines?

This is the second time I have purchased this yeast and it lasts me 1- 2 years, stored in the freezer. I use it in my bread machine mainly for pizza or rolls. I do not bake in the bread machine because it doesn't come out well. But it works nicely for my bread machine on manual cycle.

If you look on Fleischmann's web site, it says that instant, rapid rise and bread machine yeast are all the same thing in different packaging.

Here is the exact answer on Fleischmann's web: http://breadworld.com/education/Yeast-Basics (this is a Flei... web page). The answer copied and pasted: "RapidRise® Yeast is the same as Bread Machine Yeast and Instant Yeast. (Instant Yeast is the a 1 pound package of Fleischmann's® Yeast sold at Sam's Club.)"I'm ordering today and will report when I've used it a few times.

Not exactly; however, I have used this yeast many many times in my breadmaker, and I have had fabulous results with it. I simply store it in a glass jar and it lasts just as it should.

No. It would have to say "rapid rise". However, this is what I use in my bread machine and there is no difference that I have ever noticed.

In my experience, this is not the same as the rapid rise yeast. It is truly reliable and makes a beautiful loaf of bread, with standard rising and hand mixed methods. I do not use a bread machine, but have had them. In the machine you should use a rapid rise, by all the directions I have read. I hope this helps.

I use it in my bread machine, to make biscuits, in pizza dough, works great for everything I have made, and I bake every weekend.

Instant Yeast stays fresh for about a year, unopened, I store it in the freezer in a plastic jar, and appear never to have problems. If compared with ACTIVE yeast use 25% less Instant Yeast.In most ways (as far as I can tell) Instant, Quick Rise and Rapid Rise behave in a fairly similar fashion. I have used all in bread making machines, but bread making is more fun when you do it 'by hand'.. I live in fairly dry area which levels the field. Experiment with all yeasts, and flour mixes, and you will get slightly different results. Some you will love, some you will hate. Luckily we are all different.

I make yeast bread with it but I put it in a Pullman loaf pan. It does rise just fine if you figure out the proper yeast amount. It makes a nicely dense yeast bread that will double in size.

Yes, according to the Bob's Red Mill site, where there is a recipe (I've never tried to make it). In addition, a Google search shows several recipes, including for bread machines. Hope this helps!

No. Instant yeast is similar to active dry yeast, except for it is more "alive", which means you can mix it directly with dry ingredients instead of having to soak it in warm water before use. If you're substituting instant yeast in a recipe that calls for active dry yeast, reduce the amount by 25% and mix it directly with dry ingredients. Edited to add: I do highly recommend this yeast, though. I use it all the time and keep it in a Ziploc bag in the freezer between uses, and it stays active for 2 years, easily. Probably much longer than that.

This is an Italian yeast (seems lighter in rising than original American yeast) however, it does have an added vanilla base. I use it to make Biscotti Di Prato, an Italian twice-baked cookie/bread, and the taste is delicious and have had no problems. I have not used it in other baking items. I am sorry I can't help there.

I Don't think this would be the same as Fermax Yeast Nutrient. This is more for breaking down corn etc. into starch so it can ferment.

This should work in any recipe that calls for dry yeast. But for regular baking I prefer to get it started in warm water with sugar or honey. Be sure and keep it away from the salt in your dry ingredients. Be prepared to make a lot of bread because this is much larger than a grocery store jar.

I put the yeast in warm water with a pinch of sugar and a little flour. When the yeast begins bubbling, you can add remaining ingredients. I strongly recommend Saf-instant yeast which is available at Amazon. It never fails; I make more than 50 loaves of bread a year and never have had a failed batch with Saf yeast.

I personally have not used this machine for gluten-free bread. However, I did purchase the "Bread Machine Cookbook" by Beth Bensperger (Amazon books). I'll quote her chapter on Gluten Free Breads. "You need to have a strong motor in your bread machine to make these breads, one that is capable of handling whole wheat doughs, because the gluten-free doughs are like thick sticky batters. This book contains 3 recipes courtesy of Lisa Brugellis of Welbilt of America. Hensperger states that the "Welbilt Millennium bread machine models" all of which have a special Non-Gluten Bread cycle. Having said this, she also suggests that if you don't have this special cycle on your machine to use the Quick Yeast Bread cycle. The Sunbeam does have a Whole Wheat cycle, but not a Quick Yeast cycle. Hope this helps a little.

I prefer it because I can keep it in my freezer and use it straight from the freezer into the recipe without letting it warm to room temperature first (as required by most others) and not have to work about it not working correctly. That's a lifesaver if you forget, or want to make something on spur of moment. Plus, I've always had better rising from this yeast than other brands.

I think bread flour makes it rise better than regular flour. Never used Machine flour. Might be the same as bread flour. You never know until you experiment. The machine works beautifully though. You'll like it.

Yes it is, it is dried, and rendered inactive. So it will not work to make bread rise, nutritional yeast is high in protein though, and is part of the mushroom family. Often it is used to make a vegetarian of vegan meal healthier, at least as far as I can tell.

Yes, yeast can be used. They have a bread machine recipe on the side of the package and it uses a tablespoon of yeast. Of course, it will never be like wheat bread, but it works for us. It is a little bit "gummy" I think, but is pretty good when toasted and makes a good garlic bread in my toaster oven. Hope this helps. I love the oatmeal cookie recipe on the package and the banana bread recipe on the package turned out okay too.

Bread machine recipies work out fine, but I only use the slightly larger whole wheat yeast and no the regular yeasts. Also have to be sure to balance the ph when using rye - hence the bit or orange peel and bit of apple cider vinegar.

I've never used gold, but according to SAF the gold yeast is supposed to work better with sweet doughs. In dough with a high sugar content, the sugar can pull away moisture from the yeast and the dough rises more slowly. Gold yeast needs less water to work so it gives a quicker rise with sweet doughs. With normal dough, it shouldn't make a big difference whether you use red or gold.

SAF-Instant *IS* the same as the packets of Red Star Rapid Rise yeast you find in the grocery.. (Lesaffre owns the SAF, Red Star and Panibake brands, plus others used internationally.) If you want an active dry yeast in a one-pound from Lesaffre, get Red Star Active Dry yeast.
